Who and where
Keep customer details and the correct visit address available without searching old messages.
- Customer phone, email and address
- Call, email and WhatsApp actions
- Job-specific address
- Cloud-backed records
Many small jobs. One practical record.
Keep small jobs from turning into big admin
When your week is made up of different jobs for different customers, the admin can become harder to track than the work itself. TradesMate keeps the customer, appointment, job details, quote, invoice, payment and expenses together.
The working-day problem
A varied week creates lots of loose ends
Repairs, installation work, maintenance visits and small improvements may each be straightforward. The challenge is remembering which customer requested what, when you promised to attend and whether the money side is complete.
- Keep many customer records searchable in one place
- Give every short visit a date, time, address and description
- Contact customers directly by phone, email or WhatsApp
- See invoiced, paid, outstanding and expense records
A clear working process
A repeatable routine for jobs that are never quite the same
Use one simple admin path whether the request is a repair, a return visit or a small property-improvement job. These are examples, not specialised product templates.
- 1
Record the request
Create the customer and save the contact details you will need later.
- 2
Plan the visit
Schedule a date and time, then add the address and a clear job description.
- 3
Agree the work
Create an itemised quote when the customer needs a price before you begin.
- 4
Finish the record
Update the job and attach useful before-and-after photos.
- 5
Close the money loop
Invoice, record payments and keep costs visible as expenses.
Real TradesMate screens
A quick view of a varied working week
Real app screens put customer contact, upcoming jobs, business totals and documents where a one-person maintenance business can reach them quickly.
What and when
Turn each request into a scheduled record, even when the jobs across your week are completely different.
- Job date and time
- Description and status
- Configurable appointment reminder
- Before-and-after photos
How much—and was it paid?
Follow the money without pretending to replace formal accounting. TradesMate records payment methods rather than processing card or bank payments.
- Quotes and invoices
- Partial payment history
- Overdue invoice indicators
- Expenses and job-linked costs
A record that grows with the business
Start by organising your own jobs, then move to Pro if workload or team access outgrows the Free limits.
- One-person Free workspace
- Unlimited Pro workload
- Team roles and assignment with Pro
- Business data ZIP export with Pro
Built for the way you work
Start with the workload you have today
The Free plan is a practical entry point for a handyman building a better routine; Pro is there when the records or team grow.
One-person working week
Use TradesMate to keep a limited number of live customers, jobs, documents, expenses and photos under control.

Questions about this workflow
Practical answers before you start
Is TradesMate suitable for a one-person handyman business?
Yes. The Free plan is designed for a single user with defined limits, so you can organise a small real workload before deciding whether Pro is useful.
Can I organise different kinds of jobs in the same app?
Yes. Each job can have its own customer, date, time, address, description, status, photos and expenses, so varied work can remain in one list.
Can I contact customers directly from TradesMate?
Yes. Saved contact details can open the phone dialler, email app or WhatsApp. TradesMate does not send messages automatically.
Can I create quotes and invoices on my phone?
Yes. Create multi-item documents, generate professional PDFs, share or email them, and convert an accepted quote into an invoice.
Can I store before-and-after photos?
Yes. You can attach compressed photos to the relevant job.
Can I keep track of unpaid invoices?
Yes. TradesMate shows outstanding amounts and overdue invoice indicators, and records partial or full payments.
Can TradesMate work for a small property-maintenance team?
Yes. Pro supports owner, administrator and worker roles plus job assignment. TradesMate does not claim GPS or mileage tracking.
